Does anyone have any suggestions/preferences to a secure FTP server for Gentoo?
My 55+ year old father-in-law wants to start learning building websites. I am having him install Nvu and want to setup ftp to my web server and give him his own directory to play with. I have never had a need for ftp since I have always used ssh. However, I want to make it as easy as possible for him to learn web page design, so that is why I thought ftp would be the easiest and most supported by tools. He uses winXP and I think Nvu can publish to ftp. If he really gets into building websites, he wants to purchase something like dreamweaver. >From my perspective, I don't want an ftp server that will allow someone to get in to my gentoo box by brute forcing a username and password. I guess I can install something like denyhosts if the ftp server uses tcp wrappers.
